ALIMENTARY AND INTESTINAL CA- 
NAL. 

Explanation and Hygienic Treatment. 



THE accompanying engraving shows the ali- 
mentary and intestinal canal and locates the 
most important places or points. 

1. Esophagus. 2. Cardiac Orifice. 3. Stom- 



ach. 4. Pylorus. 5. Gall Bladder. 6, 6, 6. Small 
Intestines. 7. Lower and enlarged pouch of Co- 
lon. 8. Appendix. This singular organ seems to 
have no useful or necessary office in our ana- 
tomical structure, but on the contrary is often 
the cause of death, due to inflammation caused by 
hardened fseces, or by hard bodies, such as cher- 
ry stones, grapeseed, peanuts or other hard sub- 
stances which may 
become wedged in it. 
It is one of the great- 
est mysteries of the 
human anatomy, and 
when inflamed it re- 
ceives the name of 
ap-pen-di-ci'tis. The 
symptoms of this ter- 
rible affection are en- 
largement and pain^ 
just where the dark 
spot 8 is located in 
Fig. 1 on page 9 for 
inflammation of the 
caecum. The exter- 
nal treatment for ap- 
pendicitis is No. 298, 
and the internal 
treatment is by rec- 
tum, by using No. 180 or $|4i# 14 
205. Treatment should be commenced at once 
and continued until all obstructions are removed. 
Injections should be made while resting on the 
back and retained for several minutes. This 
treatment, if commenced at once, may not only 
save the life of the patient, but will make any 
cutting with the knife absolute^ unnecessary. 
9. Ascending colon. 10. Transverse section of 
colon. 11. Desdending colon. 13. Sigmoid flex- 
ure or complicated bend in the colon. This is the 
citadel of constipation and the fortification 
where it does so much harm to the human or- 
ganism. 

When constipated the Ifquids which should 
pass out with the fecal matter is reabsorbed and 
carried direct to the liver. This demands of that 
organ a greater work to perforin than nature 
has designed, hence it becomes sluggish and 
the system is then soon filled with bile and im- 
purities. This absorption leads to a great many 
symptoms, such as impoverished blood, sallow- 
ness, irregular heart action, dizziness, headache, 
piles, fistulae, gravel, diabetes, and all forms of 
kidney, liver, stomach and intestinal trouble.

may produce dropsy, numbness or cramps in 
lower extremities and many other ailments. All 
of these ma)' be cured by using 180. 

If these treatments, said the late Wilford 
Hall, were used periodicaly, begun early in 
life, above troubles wo aid be ruled out of the 
list of ailments, as their cause would forever 
be re- moved* 

13. Rectum. 14. Anus. 15. Ileo cascal valve, 
which allows the contents of the small intestines 
to pass freely at 7, but prevents their return.

How Dyspeptics Should Mat. 

Sir T Lauder Brunton emphasizes the fol- 
lowing points in instructing patients who are 
troubled with dyspepsia : 

1. Kat slowly, masticate and insalivate thor- 
oughly. And, if necessary, follow Sir Andrew 
Clark's rule — count the bites. 

2. Take the solids and liquids separate^, so 
as not to dilute the gastric juices nor weaken 
the digestive powers of the stomach. 

3. The best fluid is hot water, taken early in 
the morning and an hour or two before noon 
and evening meals. 

a.. Alkalis before meals stimulate secretion 
of the digestive fluids. 

b. Acids before meals check acid secretion 
of the stomach.

quart to a gallon, and after dischaging it thor-

things may be used with advantage in the wa-

Constipation and Indigestion Due to Rectal 
Disease. 

Physics taken for constipation, with indiges- 
tion, when due to contractions of sphincter ani 
muscles, will do no good, but may permanently 
injure the health. And although this form of 
constipation is rarely suspected, it often exists. 

Remed v : Have the rectum dilated every al- 
ternate day for several weeks, or until cured. 
This will cause easy movements of the bowels, 
heal the rectum and cure the stomach trouble.

Felons. 

Dip the finger in carbolic acid, and after wait- 
ing half an hour to lancing, the cutting will be 
almost painless. 

Before the formation of pus, felons may be 
cured in every case by keeping the finger wrap- 
ped with lint soaked with tinct. lobelia, con- 
stantly applied. In less than six hours all throb- 
bing ceases and pain is gone. 

If pus is formed, prepare a poultice from equal 
parts of powdered soap and sodium anhydrous 
chloride, and enough balsam of fir to make a 
mass. Then apply twice daily for three days, 
when it will have made a hole to the bone, and

[note.] If, upon walking or jolting, pain is 
greatly increased, the trouble, no doubt, is due 
to prolapsed or fallen ovaries, which should be 
replaced and kept in position until relievied of 
the congested state which they are in. This is 
best accomplished by packing a wad of cotton, 
covered with vaseline, under each ovary, then a 
large wad, covered with boro-glyceri under both to 
hold them in position. Attach a string to each. 
Wads must not remain longer than 24 hours. 

Simple "ovaryache" does not necessarily mean 
ovarian disease any more than headache means

How to Replace and Cure a Fallen Womb. 

The only 
way a woman 
can replace a 
fallen womb 
is by getting 
in the position 
shown by the 
accom p a 11 y - 
ing figure, 
and, while in 
this position 
open the parts 
and let the air 
pass into the 
vagina. When 
this is proper- 
ly done the entire contents within the abdominal 
walls instantly drop forward as shown in Fig. 2. 
However, the womb may have become so imbed- 
ded that, for a few times at first, it will require 
gentle pressure with the finger against the womb 
to start it forward. After thus replacing it, 
she should carefully lie down so as to retain all 
the air in the vagina that is possible, which 
will then act as a support until morning. 

Falling of the womb is usually caused by an 
enlargement of that organ and from a weaken- 
ing of the ligaments that support it. To remedy 
this the womb must be reduced to its normal size 
and weight and the ligaments which support it 
strengthened. The first thing of importance is 
the replacing of the womb, which should be done 
every evening upon retiring as above de- 
scribed. This will relieve the womb of the con- 
gested state which it is in, and at the same time, 
remove the strain upon its supports for at least 
from seven to nine hours out of every twenty- 
four. Without its being replaced but little can 
be accomplished. In addition to this, use recipe 
No. 378, also treatment 180 and 369. Keep the 
bowels regular, and if the system is run down, 
use 358 or 359 as may be indicated therein.

Constipation of Children. 

Constipation in breast-fed infants is caused 
by an excess of casein in the mother's milk, 
and the first step, therefore, must be to regulate 
the habits and life of the mother. She must 
be placed on a diet of fresh meat, fresh vegeta- 
bles and freshly cooked fruit, with regular exer- 
cise and restriction in the matter of tea drinking 
or other dietetic irregularities. Should this fail, 
give the child cream in doses of from one to 
two teaspoonfuls in warm water from time to 
time before regular meals.
